Just finished this one.
This pattern started life as a Loveless style Field & Stream semi-skinner. I made one a while back and accidently milled the guard slot in the wrong place and ended up doing some 'creative grinding' to prevent binning it. As it happened, this little knife proved to be quite popular, so I decided to make another.
As I'm not one for coming up with catchy names for knives, I decided to call it the 'Field Knife' after ditching the '& Stream' part.
Imaginative eh?
Anyway....this has a 3 1/4" blade of AEB-L with a 10" hollow grind, HT was handled by Guy Stainthorp.
Overall length is 7 1/2". Green canvas Norplex Micarta on a tapered tang with red fibre liners. Brass guard along with brass pins with stainless centres silver soldered in.
Sheath is a pocket type with no belt loop.
As always, thanks for taking time to have a look.
